Don't Bother

More organized plot, it was a bit to all over the place. T.R Ragen did such a great job with Abducted but lost a lot of steam in this book. Jared one ..Show More »of the main charecters in the first book was barely even a part of this one and when he was it wasn't in a way you would think or enjoy.

While they appear to be unrelated accidents at first glance, a closer look shows they all have something in common.

Author giveths & takeths....has failed Lizzie.

I have enjoyed books 1-4 but found this one to be deplorable to Lizzie.

The entire series Ms. Ragan has had Jared help rebuild Lizzie's hea..Show More »rt, soul..everything and then Ms. Ragan decides to take away?

For me this was a ignorant move for character writing.

I did not enjoy what has happened in this book. Quoting Lizzie "nobody alive knows me". I think a lot of the readers of the series thought they did based on the reviews throughout the series until this book. Apparently Ms. Ragan did not.

One plus is I always enjoy Katie Rudd's narration of Audible books and she had done an awesome job for this series.
